Welcome to Operation Mindcrime

OK, so I stole my name from an awesome Queensryche CD from the late 80's, but now is the time. For years Washington has been tethered to their masters in the corporate world disregarding the needs of the people whom they claim to serve. As time has gone on they have become more blatant in their service to their corporate masters. If you think that it begins and ends with that schmuck Jack Abrahmoff think again. He was just careless enough to get caught. There IS a class war happening in the US. The conservative talking heads with simple minds like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'Reilly love to say that there isn't and chide any moderately liberal candidate who talks about the needs of the working calls as 'appealing to the class war sensibilities' while neglecting that there IS a class war and it is being waged by the upper class on the workers of the US. CEO's routinely get seven and eight figure bonuses for scoring victories against the working class by reducing pay and benefits. For the CEO to get the really big score he needs to get the knock out blow of eliminating jobs.

There are more of us than there are of them, and together we can take the power back.
